Top Review Under Currie Technologies 450 eZip Electric Scooter 

1 Not at all what we wanted. By C. Rego

We already have a Razor RipRider 360 that is old and finally gave up, so I ordered 2 eZip 450s. Very disappointing. These scooters are made for sitting only, even tho the seat is removable, the handlebar height is not adjustable, impossible to stand and ride, very uncomfortable. The handlebars are so short they are unusable standing up. Do not buy this product unless you want a sit down only scooter. Am stuck, cannot return them.

2 Poor Customer Service By flmom 

Scooter, which was my son's only wish on his Christmas list, was shipped MISSING the charger. When I phoned customer service, 7 days before Christmas, was told that I should have opened the box sooner as now they can not guarantee charger will arrive in time for Christmas. They would not overnight the charger to me and would only send it Fedex ground, which can take 6-10 days, arriving AFTER Christmas. I was also told Currie was 'doing me a favor' by not charging me for shipping the charger, which they forgot to include in the box in the first place! The days of a company taking responsibility for a mistake and correcting it are gone. Will not order from Currie again.

3 Fun scooter but handle a bit flimsy By Nazifa Nawabzada 

My son loves this scooter. The seat is nice and the tires are wide for good balance.

But the handle on the side that makes the scooter go, keeps getting loose and the scooter would not start. I have had to spend a good 30 minutes every time to fix it but I fear it wont last very l

4 Not For Adults By Scott 

We purchased this item to test how long it would run with an adult using it (220lbs). About 15 minutes is all it would get on a flat surface. Then it takes 5 hrs to recharge. Not what we were hoping for. We will be raffling it off at our year end banquet.

5 Do Not Buy -- Can Not Return By Mark Stephen Souder 

Loved this little scotter for the first week, then afterwards it would not hold a charge -- and you cannot return because of the battery, apparently it's "hazardous waste". This should be on the site. Tomorrow I will call Currie and see what they can do since it's two weeks into a 90 day warranty period. Be warned.

6 do not get this ride on - very dangerous! By concerned mom 

I bought this for my ten year old and I wish I did not. This product looked nice, but after the fifth use the scooter completely stopped and threw my son over the handle bars. It was horrifying! Thank god my son was ok. I tried calling the company, but they did not want to help me. Please do not buy this product for your kid's safety!

7 Lasted 6 months By Mike S. 

Seemed well built but could not withstand a 13 year old boy for long. In all fairness, my son is rough on things but within the first month the power button broke (snapped off). Cheap, easy replacement but after about 3 months the scooter would only go about 1/2 as far as when new. I charged the battery and know it was done right. Right about the 4 month mark the front fork broke at the frame. At this point the scooter was useless and probably would have been trashed by most owners since the warranty for this is only 90 days. Since I have a welder and some amateur welding skills, I was able to fix this and re enforce it with extra steel. The wheel bearings were also toast and I replaced them at the same time. The fun part about that is there are 2 different versions of the bearings and there are absolutely no makings or documentation on which ones you might have. I had to poke-and-hope and luckily I guessed right. The brakes broke a few weeks ago and the battery is nearly dead. Not sure it's worth spending another 100+ on this. If your child is careful with their stuff this may be OK but I would avoid if you have a very active, typical teenage boy. It just won't last - electric scooters for kids

8 Those are the brakes By Jason G. 

The speed is good (~15 mph) but the breaks barely works at all - something my 9 year old complains about regularly. Appears there's a break light but that either doesn't work or is just for show...

The scooter is pretty quiet since electric. Fully charging the battery is good for about 20-30 minutes of riding (decent, I think). Unfortunately, the breaks are important and really affect our satisfaction with this scooter (our family's fifth)

9 Box arrived open/UPS' fault By Scott Williamson 

I just received the scooter, very quickly, I might add. But UPS ... yes, it is around the holiday's and they are busy, but the box was left in the rain the top wide open (the heavy staples had popped open) under some bushes at the front door--so the bottom of the box is covered with wet mulch. now in process of determining if everything is in the box--5 days prior to Christmas---I will follow up to this to confirm the final result

10 Currie Technology eZip By Crowsnest 

The battery life is not sufficient to make this usable for much more than playing with. Battery life is significantly reduced if there is the slightest incline.
